THE RIDE
Raiders Gravel is a three-day gravel adventure ride which takes riders deep into the breathtaking wilderness of the Galloway Forest Park. You’ll ride up gruelling climbs, through deep forests and alongside stunning lochs, and all in one of Scotland’s most beautiful areas.
Along with our festival at the Event HQ in Gatehouse of Fleet, Raiders Gravel guarantees a truly Scottish gravel experience.
